1. “Argo” ($13 million) – It’s rare, but sometimes films can rise to the top spot well after their original opening (“Gran Torino” comes to mind). Going with that shift happening here. Film has plenty of positive buzz and should post a very small drop from the previous weekend.

2. “Cloud Atlas” ($11.2 million) – The latest offering from the Wachowski Siblings (“Matrix” trilogy) is ambitious but also very, very long. With a running time of nearly three hours, audiences will be bordering on either exhaustion or pure bewilderment. The film’s leads (Tom Hanks and Halle Berry) are also nowhere near the high box office draws they once were.

3. “Hotel Transylvania” ($10.4 million) – The upcoming Halloween holiday continues to serve this family film very well. Look for another top five finish.
